We had an excellent time in Jordan and Egypt. Our greeter at Queen Alia airport (Rami) was exceptionally efficient, diligent and friendly, as was our driver (Azmi) for the week. Our Egyptian hosts were just as good, especially Ahmed and Mohammed in Cairo, Medhat on the Nile cruise and Ahmed at head office.

Overall, the trip was good. However, there were a couple issues beginning with the airport pickup. We expected to meet our pickup person after we passed thru customs into the terminal. No one was there & after about 45 minutes a tour company rep showed up & informed us he was looking for us at the visa/passport section. We saw 2 tour reps with name signs, but not this tour rep. This area was not crowded & there were few Westerners. We should have been easy to spot. The tour rep thought we were driving to Petra that evening & we had to inform him we had the 1st night in Amman. The Amman hotel (nights 1&3) was a good hotel, with helpful staff, but not near any restaurants. On day 2, our itinerary showed a lunch was to be provided in Petra. Our driver was not aware of this. We arrived in Petra around noon, were handed off to a guide & had lunch at our expense, 3 hours later - after the guide's tour. The driver contacted their office that evening & we were compensated with lunch on day 3. This is not really a guided tour, but a driver assigned to shephard us to & from Petra. The driver was not a guide & provided virtually no guide information.

Amazing tour. Tour guide was informative and knowledgeable. The itinerary was good although could be a bit rush if tour members are not fit enough to walk around. Wadi rum is otherworldly, probably could stay 3-4 days even.
